Or some other role played in 99% of games of mafia, you can also have the option of keeping GF appearing as citizen for those 1% of citizen games, so you can have a "properly balanced" game if you want but in pub games which are purely for fun, why take balancing so seriously?

Because if the game isn't balanced it's only fun for one side.

Unless you wanna play a 13 SK + 1 Mafioso game cause I heard those were great.

What do you mean, its a lot more fun being a role, esp. a power role, rather than being a citizen, unless you are all after balanced strategy. For that you have private games. I mean it still takes a whole lot of strategy in "fun" pub setups simply b/c it takes a special type of skill to handle the randomness, stupidity; for example, you have to know the politics of getting trolls on your side.

It seems to come down to skill even in pubs where everyone has a role, simply due to the stupidity and disorganization of the town.

And the setup you described is not lol-worthy, 3 mafia and the rest neutrals, or 3 jailors, 1 mafiaso, and the rest jesters are pretty awesome :P
